Migrate M365 from Old domain to New domain

 


There are a few ways to migrate M365 from old domain to new domain. Here are the two most common methods:

Method 1: Use the Microsoft 365 admin center

This is the simplest method, but it requires that you have a domain registered with a supported registrar. To migrate your M365 tenant to a new domain using the Microsoft 365 admin center, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Settings > Domains page in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
  2. Click the Add button and enter the new domain name.
  3. Follow the instructions to verify the new domain name.
  4. Once the new domain name is verified, you can start migrating your users and mailboxes to the new domain.

Method 2: Use a third-party migration tool

If you don't have a domain registered with a supported registrar, or if you want to migrate your users and mailboxes to a new domain in a more complex way, you can use a third-party migration tool. There are many different migration tools available, so you'll need to choose one that's compatible with your M365 tenant and your new domain.

Once you've chosen a migration tool, follow the instructions provided by the tool to migrate your users and mailboxes to the new domain.

Here are some of the third-party migration tools that you can use:

  • BitTitan MigrationWiz
  • CodeTwo Exchange Migration
  • MigrationsPro
  • Skykick

Which method should you use?

The best method for migrating M365 from old domain to new domain depends on your specific needs and requirements. If you have a simple migration and you're comfortable using the Microsoft 365 admin center, then using the Microsoft 365 admin center is the simplest option. However, if you have a complex migration or you want to use a more advanced migration tool, then you can use a third-party migration tool.

Here are some things to keep in mind when migrating M365 from old domain to new domain:

  • Make sure that you have a backup of your data before you start the migration.
  • Test the migration in a staging environment before you migrate your production environment.
  • Communicate with your users about the migration and let them know what to expect.
  • Be prepared for some downtime during the migration.

I hope this helps!
